How can I benefit from geranium essential oil?

Here are some ways you can benefit from geranium essential oil:

  1. Stress and Anxiety Relief: Geranium oil is known for its calming properties. Inhaling its aroma through a diffuser or topical application (diluted with a carrier oil) can help reduce stress, anxiety, and promote relaxation.
  2. Mood Enhancement: The pleasant floral scent of geranium oil is believed to uplift the mood and promote a sense of well-being. Diffusing the oil or using it in massages may help in this regard.
  3. Skincare: Geranium oil is often used in skincare due to its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It may help in balancing sebum production, making it beneficial for both dry and oily skin types. Diluted geranium oil can be applied topically to improve the appearance of the skin and reduce the appearance of acne, blemishes, and wrinkles.
  4. Natural Insect Repellent: Geranium oil has been used traditionally as an insect repellent. Its aroma can deter mosquitoes and other insects. You can add a few drops to a carrier oil and apply it to your skin or use it in a diffuser to keep insects at bay.
  5. Pain Relief: Geranium oil may possess analgesic properties, which means it can help alleviate pain. When diluted with a carrier oil, it can be massaged onto sore muscles or painful areas for relief.
  6. Menstrual Support: Some women find geranium oil beneficial during menstruation as it may help with menstrual pain and hormonal balance. It can be used in aromatherapy or diluted with a carrier oil and applied to the lower abdomen.
  7. Supporting Sleep Quality: Due to its calming effects, geranium oil may assist in promoting better sleep. Diffusing the oil in the bedroom before bedtime might help create a relaxing atmosphere conducive to rest.

Are there precautions I should know about?

Remember, essential oils are potent substances, so always use them with care:

  • Patch Test: Perform a patch test on a small area of your skin to check for any allergic reactions or sensitivities before widespread use.

    Fungus patches appeared on my front upper body 3 years ago. I finally decided to apply Geranium e.o. (2 drops) + Apricot kernel oil : once a day on clean and dry skin. After 4 days, I can already see improvement with the disappearance of the patches. I’m Happy!

    This is my second purchase from Aromasense after buying the Geranium oil two years ago. The oil not only lasted me for two years with occasional use, but I also noticed that it hadn’t lost its aroma. So ordered again in Oct 2024 and been using for a week. Quick easy purchase and delivery. Very happy with the purchase.
